Playing as Fizz
Tips to maximize your impact
- Farm with your trident
Last-hit minions with Seastone Trident (W) early on: if the empowered auto kills, you get mana back and its cooldown drops.
- Dodge with Playful
Save Playful (E) to dodge a key spell: you're untargetable for 0.75 seconds, then land with damage and a slow.
- Throw your fish from range
Cast Chum the Waters (R) from range: the farther the fish travels before it attaches, the stronger the shark's slow and damage.
- Combo before the shark
After Chum the Waters (R), chain Urchin Strike (Q) and Seastone Trident (W) while the target is slowed: the shark then bursts up under them and knocks them into the air.
Playing against Wukong
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade after his W
Trade after Warrior Trickster (W): it's his best escape, and it has a 22 to 18 second cooldown.
- Ignore the still clone
When Warrior Trickster (W) turns him invisible, ignore the figure standing still: that's the clone, and the real Wukong just dashed off to the side.
- Spread out from your allies
When he has Cyclone (R), spread out from your allies: he spins in the middle of your team and knocks every nearby enemy into the air, twice.
- Escape after his second Cyclone
If you have a way to escape, wait for his second Cyclone (R) to end: the spell can be recast once, and each spin knocks nearby enemies into the air again.
